Tachyhippodamia; Or, The new secret of taming horses / To which is added The breaking, training, and taming horses

A practical handbook that provides step-by-step methods for breaking, training, and taming horses, covering colts, very wild or vicious animals, and techniques to cure kicking and other bad behaviors. It combines hands-on horsemanship instruction with remedies for livestock diseases, feeding and fattening advice, and tips for training other animals. The text stresses patience, gentleness, and the use of tact rather than force, includes illustrative anecdotes of rapid success, and incorporates supplementary training material from an additional practitioner, all presented in plain language for readers with varying levels of experience.
